The Lady & Sons Beef Vegetable Soup

Don’t let the lengthy ingredient list scare you away. It’s really not as bad as it looks. Even my brother, Bubba, can make it. On a cold winter’s day it will make your tongue want to slap your brains out! This recipe serves two or three dozen people, but can easily be cut in half. It keeps for up to five days in the refrigerator or two months in the freezer.

Cooks' Note

*The chuck roast will yield more meat, but the bones from the short ribs give the soup an incredible flavor.
